I have one but his pee goes right through this? Is this normal for these diapers - how about if he poops?

These aren't absorbent like the Huggies or similar brand swim diapers, so pee will soak thru. But, they are better about catching poop. The swim school my child attends requires that kids wear two of this type swim diaper when he goes to his lessons. We haven't had any problems with this method.

No swim diaper will hold pee in, even the disposable swimmies don't hold pee. This does however hold poop. I've experiencedit first hand :-) Definitely works!!

Hi, I don't think so. We have this same issue, but deal with it since it's a great seat for potty training.

A little will dribble out after she drinks and sits on the potty, but essentially she has to be upright while you squeeze her and then she will pee. The way she works is there is just a tube from her mouth to her bottom. So, gravity and pressure will make the water come out.

My son hasn't ever wet so much that he's leaked around the diapers before we changed him. The covering is machine washable, so we can throw that in the wash, but when he was really young, we didn't buckle him in, as he was really small and tucked so far down the "bucket" of the seat. We covered that area with a folded hospital receiving blanket, so he wasn't sitting directly on a hard buckle. I suppose you could put one of those down around the bottom area if you're concerned.

The quilted side goes up to absorb the urine. Did you put the smooth side up? That would explain the pooling. I have two Maltese! I hope the pads work for your baby. Let us know!

These diapers are amazing. We have never had a leakage problem and our dog has gone several times in a diaper. I love them and she doesn't mind them either.

I had a very ancient English Bulldog. She never did anything other than pee in her diaper. Providing you put this diaper on correctly, you should have no problems I would think.

No, I don't think so. My son cried each time after pee. It must be wet and uncomfortable. I stopped using it and switched to paper diapers.

My son did the same thing for 1 day. I figured he was trying to pee like Dad by kind of standing over it. I told him we sit on this potty and that it makes messes if he does that. Later we trained him to stand at the big one like Dad since he showed interest by standing at his potty. Maybe that is what your son is trying to do? He might want to be a stander.

Not 100% sure why, your having issues. Is it the liners leaking for the outer diaper cover? I'm taking a guess & thinking possible a few reasons. 1- Not washed according to MFG directions. Maybe to much detergent has built up & is now preventing the liners from doing their job? 2- Also, I don't put the liners or the covers in dryer. Mine air dry. 3- I have about 4 days worth of diaper liners & covers. So mine are not used daily.They are rotated. If you have been using the same 2 dozen for the last 10 months, Maybe it's just wearing out. 4- I don't need or use any type of diaper cream, If you do, perhaps that is building up. As my daughter got older, I too found it necessary to use 2 lines, during naps. Post here if you found out why this is happening. Now I'm curious

No, it doesn't work for the poop. It's not a perfect solution, but it's better than cleaning up poop and pee. How do you use regular diapers, do you just cut a hole for the tail?

Will not happen if you change the diaper a few times a day. We change it after a walk, before bed and in the morning. A quick wipe once a day with a Wet One (or similar) also helps keep fresh.

The urine is absorbed by the pad. We just use feminine napkins because they are cheaper. You just change them immediately and it never really touches them. It almost always gets the diaper wet also so you pretty much need two. They wear one while you wash the other.

Mine doesn't even squat, I used to have pee all over the wall. This one is high enough most of the time, just once in awhile he still likes to aim high lol, but it's the highest I found and again I'm happy with it. Good luck:)

Not at all. It was less of a problem than some other potties we tried. Especially the Fisher Price frog - our daughter had a hard time with that one.

No, I haven't had that problem. The bubble is higher than where the fecal/urine matter is expelled. I have 2 cats, a male and a female, both over 15 pounds and I haven't had the problem in the 1 year plus that I've had this litter box.

In my opinion they work best! My little guy is a heavy wetter and these have held him overnight. My husband and I place 2 liners in his diaper and they hold pretty well. Using two didn't make the diapers too bulky at all. These are more absorbant to us than the bamboo or hemp.
